2018 Ford Transit (ca) 2.2L Diesel · CV18 YCY

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 18 June 2025 at 112,262 miles resulted in zero defects or advisories. This follows a consistent history of clean passes across five tests, indicating that the vehicle has consistently met minimum safety and emissions standards without flagging recurring mechanical failures or structural degradations. The mileage profile reflects heavy commercial usage consistent with a Ford Transit of this age, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per annum. Between June 2023 and June 2025, the vehicle covered 23,658 miles, showing a slight acceleration in use compared to the earlier period of its life-cycle. While this high mileage typically puts significant strain on drivetrain and suspension components, the lack of recorded MOT advisories suggests that the previous owners have been proactive with maintenance or that the vehicle has been operated under conditions that have not yet lead to premature component failure. Given the high mileage and the nature of the vehicle platform, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to heavy-duty wear. A buyer must specifically examine the suspension bushes, wish arms, and coil springs for signs of fatigue or shearing, which often manifest on high-mileage vans. The braking system should be checked for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, as the MOT does not always capture intermittent issues. Additionally, a close look at the chassis and underside mounting points for emerging corrosion is essential to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the high annual mileage.
